Meet Bariatric Surgery Patient Dianna!

My name is Dianna Mogelgaard, and Dr. Champion performed a RNY on me 1/15/04. Prior to surgery, I weighed 300 lbs. and was plagued with numerous co-morbidities associated with obesity such as sleep apnea, high cholesterol and chronic joint/muscle pain. With the help of the surgery and the post-operative support of Dr. Champion’s staff, I lost 170 lbs and have kept it off since that time The journey started with the surgery, and continued from that point forward. Healthy eating habits, regular exercise and the support of my doctors, friends and family have become essential for my continued success. It is wonderful to be healthy again! My heartfelt thanks to Dr. Champion and his wonderful staff!

Bariatric Success

Meet Bariatric Surgery Patients The Fabers !

About 4 years ago, my husband Michael and I were severely obese. We had tried, as many; many do, to lose weight with various diets, health clubs, exercise and nutritionist. In each case we had some successes, but never lost all of our weight and what weight we did lose we did not manage to keep off. Each time we had lost weight we gained back the weight we lost, plus gained even more. Over time Michael had almost reached the 400lb mark and I was very near 300lbs.
